in 1941. Ju-288 His design team was responsible for the Ju-288, designated a top priority by the Reichsluftfahrtministerium in 1941. Soviet designs RD-10 Brandner and his team recreated the Jumo 004, which they had begun working on in 1944 in Germany, becoming known under its Soviet name as the RD-10. Jumo 012 In 1947, following demands from the Soviet hierarchy, Brandner and his team reconstructed the Jumo 012, a powerful engine they had begun working on during the war in Germany. In 1948, they had completed the construction, but production was halted. TW-2/NK-4 After work on the 012 was halted, design and construction of the 6,000 horsepower Jumo 022 began, with Brandner overseeing construction of the project. This project's Soviet name was the TW-2 and NK-4. The engine passed a state-examination in October 1950. This engine paved the way for the TV-022 and 2TV-2F. NK-12 Brandner headed a team which then focused their attention on a new Soviet demand, a 12,000 horsepower engine which would become known as the Kuznetsov NK-12. This engine was first tested in 1953, and had successful performances, being placed in the Tupolev Tu-95 initially. Soviet legacy Brandner's work in the USSR set the standard for Soviet heavy turboprop production and ultimately under his leadership the world's most powerful turboprop aircraft engine was born, the Kuznetsov NK-12. Egyptian designs The Brandner E-300 was a jet engine designed to power the Helwan HA-300 jet fighter being produced by the Egyptian government.
